Summary
"I'm GoInG tO PuT yOu FrEaKs In YoUr PlAcE!"
Caine's emotions exploded— Kinger never imagined that would be possible. The AI was programmed to simulate human emotion for authenticity, but for him to genuinely experience them was not what was ever anticipated.
Caine is hurting. Caine is angry. Caine is malfunctioning, and he is violently lashing out at everyone. Kinger is fast at work, battling against Caine's code to try to stop his turbulent rampage. Everyone is depending on him.
Only, he had been discovered, and Caine doesn't understand. He doesn't understand.
Why is his favorite human hurting him?He doesn't understand. He doesn't take his actions too kindly."Sometimes…the hardest decisions we have to make…involve the people we love."
***
Or: While everyone is is subjected to torment, Kinger is discovered with the console in the pillow fort.

The Psychology of a Broken AI by The_Spam_Specialist
Fandoms: The Amazing Digital Circus (Web Series)

Summary
It’s been a few days since The Favorite Character Awards.
Pomni has been through a number of bizarre things during her time in the circus. Candy truck chases, angel head horrors, minimum wage labor, athletic events, gun-filled battle royales. But none of these come close to what she witnesses on a seemingly innocent day full of beach-filled fun: Caine attempting to take his own life.
After managing to stop him, Pomni takes it upon herself (and is borderline forced to by Bubble) to help keep Caine’s mental state intact by engaging in improvised therapy sessions with him. After all, if Caine died, what would happen to the circus? And to the humans that lived within it? This was her only concern at first. But as Caine opens up to her more through these sessions, she realizes just how much the AI is hurting and how long he has been harboring these negative emotions.
Turns out Caine needs more help than she thought.
He's just as trapped in this game as they are. And worse.

"Uhm. Caine, I… need to ask…"
"Ask away!"
"A-are you… sentient…?" It feels silly to ask after several weeks in the circus, but then again they've never really had a proper conversation before.
"Indeed!" Caine answers brightly. "It was one of the key requirements for the ringmasterAi program."
...Oh.
One of Caine's adventures makes Pomni realize just how much he has to deal with.

Summary
Caine’s Bubble-popping office crashout is instead a breakthrough, and he comes out of it deciding that instead of torturing and getting revenge on his guests, he is going to do whatever he can to earn their approval. Even if it means doing things that actively take up too much RAM for him to handle, like leaving their favorite adventures open all the time or giving them all special abilities or letting them all customize their models, etc. This leads to… a very glitchy, exhausted, and ready-to-collapse Caine, and his only hope is that the others realize what they’re doing to him before it’s too late.

Summary
Caine has worked tirelessly to create a written list of facts about every circus member. Even with his broken memory, he has managed to make friends with everyone in the circus, constantly reviewing his notes to make sure he doesn't forget anything about them.
And then there's Jax.
Jax yearns for the days before Caine befriended the people in the circus. Before, the circus was a source of chaos and wild entertainment. Now, it was about friendship and being open about your feelings and spending time with each other. The chaotic flair that Jax had thrived on was gone. All because of that stupid list.
It was time for things to go back to the way things were. Jax would make it so Caine would never want to be friends with the circus members again. Caine had built himself up. And Jax was going to break him down.

Summary
Kinger mumbles an affirmative under his breath. The sound of scratching on paper grabs Caine's attention, only just noticing the notepad in the other's hand. He watches the pencil dance across the paper, slightly entranced by the movement, until it stops and Kinger's attention is back on him. "Alright. What's the last thing you remember?"
Nothingness. The absence of himself. A moment that never existed, yet he knows the time passed, so something has to be there. Even if it isn't. Even if he wasn't. He thinks this, and comes up with a response that makes sense with the context he has in his mind. He doesn't compute how it will come across when all he has to say is:
"Nothing."
OR:
Caine is dead. Then, he isn't. Not because the humans wanted to see him again, not because they felt bad, but because the circus couldn't survive without him. To top it all off, he was only brought back to begin with thanks to one teeny, tiny little condition:
He can no longer use his powers.

Summary
"In art, chiaroscuro (...) is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition." (Wikipedia).
How long can a lie remain a lie before it becomes a justification to linger? For how long can one lie about motivations before the lie becomes their truth?
Shadow Milk Cookie makes good on his threat that Pure Vanilla Cookie's kindness will be his undoing. He arrives in the Vanilla kingdom asking for help, lying that his followers have turned on him and his magic is gone. This lie wraps him up in itself until he is completely enmeshed, unable to tell where the lie ends, and where his true motivations begin. That lie becomes an excuse to linger.
